Bottle. Cloudy amber, lively carbonation, colden ceamy head. Light clove nose. Spicy bisquit start, a bit butterscotch, mango notes. Relatively light body, mellow, a bit flat mouthfeel. Fruity caramel finish, which I find pleasant enough at first - gets cloyingly Werthers Echte after a while though - dont think I want more than one of those....

Very high, lightly brown tinted head, fine & dense, leaving lace over dark amber beer with an orange shine. Very aromatic nose, with a mix of some garden herbs, exotic fruit, olives but also the aroma of a rest of wine in an opened, forgotten bottle with some specific mould. Olives’ aroma gets stronger, mixing with cloves; the sourish, spoiled wine nose probably partly the wheat, partly the dark malts. In the taste, both banana and cloves, but the olives’ brine is still there, very markedly. Wheat, slightly sourish, bit berrylike flavour. Medium bodied, wheat slickness, not really dry. Despite some unusual aromas and flavours, it’s not really a very good Dunkelweizen. OK if you stumble over it, not one to go searching.

Bottled. Yellow colour, small white head. Aroma is not much, some weak maize and malts. Flavour is cardboard, maize, malts and saltwater. One of the most unpleasant beers during this rating session.

Pale metallic gold with fluffy white head. Chalk, dry... parsley? Dry malty taste, with some backthroat sweetness, and a fleeting sourish impression (diluted rhubarb juice?). End both metallic and on restsugars. Empty palate, watery, light body. I fear the anonymous commercial name says it all. Cheap humbug for drinks’ halls.

Good dense, amberish & collapsing head over light-amber beer with greenish-golden reflections. Quite some caramel; wheat obvious; ripe bananas and faint spicey finish for the nose. Soft sweet-bitterish taste, with a sourish impression. Caramel again, sweets-like, and faint citrus. I seem to get whiffs of butterscotch... Good balance, but on behalf of the retronasal impressions, I have my doubts. Light to medium bodied, very slick, nearly syrupy MF. Well balanced beer, which does not prevent the unwelcome caramel flavour (and texture) to become disgusting in the end.

Bottled(330ml). -Cloudy yellow coloured, small white head, wheaty and banana nose. Weak sweet wheaty and fruity (banana, orange) aroma with few yeasty hints. Fruity finish. Quite thin Hefe.
And yes, why "Flight"-such a stupid name for beer.

On tap at the Pianeta Birra, Rimini, Italy.
Cloudy orange coloured, medium sized white head, sweet corn nose. The aroma is malty, very fruity and wheaty with notes of yeast and spices. Mild and refreshing but usual hefe.

Bottled. An unclear orange beer with a thick off-white head. The aroma is sweet hoppy and wheaty, while the flavor is sweet malty and wheaty, leading to a lightly dry wheaty end.
